Mayor Of Ekiti Considers Returning Lion Cub Over Rising Aggression

Mayor Of Ekiti, a popular influencer on X, has hinted at returning his pet lion cub, Leo, to the zoo following concerns about the animal’s increasingly aggressive behaviour.

The social media personality shared a photo of the cub attempting to tear into his pillow, a moment that appeared to underline his worries.

“I’m considering sending LEO back to his source before month-end. His growing aggression is a concern, and I’m not pleased about it.”

The post quickly generated mixed reactions online, with many pointing out the risks involved in keeping a wild animal in a home environment. Observers noted that as lion cubs grow, their natural instincts become more pronounced, making them harder to manage outside controlled wildlife settings.
